I recently had a note graded "64" "Previously Mounted"..what does previously mounted mean?

Good morning,

Thanks for your message.  The phrase, "previously mounted," is used with notes that have visible residue or damage from adhesive or mounting to another service (such as cardstock or a picture frame, etc.)

Thanks!

thank you for your reply..so I have another question: this note in question was graded 64..can it still have a 64 grade and be "previously mounted"..

Yes, it can.  It lost the EPQ designation because of the previously mounted comment but the grade can still be a regular 64 without the EPQ.

Thanks!
